There is a real difference between "giving up" and "leaving". Jesus did not mention that houses and land were sold and contributed to a church or a group. Prosperity preachers teach that if one gives money to their organisation, God will bless them with great financial returns. Jesus never...

The cessationist Emperor has got no Scripture clothes on.

Where did Jesus say that? In actual fact, Biblical prosperity is having one's basic needs met - food to eat, clothes to wear, and a roof over one's head that doesn't leak, and maybe a car that one spends more time in it than under it. In African countries, prosperity for a preacher is that he...

He sure did! He clearly expressed his hatred of Jews, and Adolf took him seriously and followed his instructions to do with them, to the letter!

It would be correct to say: nihil omnino Scripturas (no Scripture at all). Or to sum up the cessationist position: summa quisquiliarum.

Here is a link to my article refuting the views of a well known cessationist: http://www.personal-communication.org.nz/CESSATIONISM+Mayhue.pdf

Hahahaha! I get a bit steamed up when I realise how cessationists are locking out and robbing good believers of the power and blessing that God has for them. Martin Luther was worse in his language than me. He says that he dismisses those who oppose him with a fart!

Here is another point. Look at these verses in 1 Corinthians 12: "28 And God has placed in the church first of all apostles, second prophets, third teachers, then miracles, then gifts of healing, of helping, of guidance, and of different kinds of tongues." Now notice that the Scripture says...

Yes.

I agree. The guy is talking stuff that rhymes with "trap"!

Michael L Brown's "Authentic Fire" has been ver insightful in dotting the I's and crossing the T's concerning some of my misgivings about the modern Charismatic movement. I have always believed in the availability of the supernatural gifts, but have not been able to answer some of the...

I have come to an interesting conclusion. Cessationists accuse Charismatics of putting faith in experiences instead of God's Word. But searched the Scriptures to find any clear indication that the supernatural gifts of the Spirit were meant to be limited to the Apostolic Age and I couldn't...

This is the problem with those fanatics who think that every depression or syndrome is demonic, and the damage they cause to innocent lives is tragic. It is similar to the one-eyed religious fanatics who teach sick people that it is a mortal sin to go to the doctor and to take medication. I...

I think that the type of teaching I got when I was a young believer in the AOG church in the late 1960s that anyone can cast demons out of people, makes inexperienced novices think they can do what the experienced big boys can do. The deliverance ministry is not for everyone, and much harm can...

Sounds like a hate cult alright!

I remember the only time in my life when God told me off was when as a young believer I tried to cast a demon out of someone and it went all wrong and the intervention ended up being a real mess and a disaster and probably nearly drove the person away from the faith. When I debriefed with the...

It is a bit like the cult that I came across when I was young in the 1960s called British Israelites - that some believed that their British cult were the true Israel reborn.

I might have just pointed and laughed. Nudists may think they have something to show, but it seems that all they can show are poor examples of God's design! :D

I wasn't sure what was meant by "Black Hebrew Israelites" and so was interested to find out. I have been giving my views about what is happening in modern Israel in their fight with Hamas, but I guess that is not what the OP was referring to.

I never saw that one while I was active on it.
